  19. The Gospel of John • Written around A.D. 60 – 95 • Written to everyone

  20. John 20:30 And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book; 31 but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.

  21. A few things we learn about John: • His father’s name was Zebedee (Mt. 4:21). • His mother’s name was Salome (Compare Mk. 15:40 to Mt. 27:56). • His brother’s name was James (Mt. 4:21). • He was one of the twelve apostles (Lk. 6:13-14). • Many times He was in the company of Simon Peter, and he and his brother had a partnership with Peter and his brother in their fishing business (Lk. 5:10). • He was in Jesus’ inner circle of friends (Mk. 5:37ff; Mt. 17:1ff)

  22. Jesus Deity is proven by 7 I AM statements and 7 miracles.

  23. Some unique features about the Gospel of John: • It has no parables (John 10:1ff is a proverb). • The synoptic Gospels begin with Adam and work their way to Christ, but the Gospel of John begins with God. • It fills in the details the synoptic Gospels leave out. • It records Jesus’ longest prayer (John 17). • It teaches many details about the work of the Holy Spirit. • It is written in the most simplistic form of Greek, yet it teaches a deep spiritual message.

  24. He would be born from a virgin (Isa. 7:14) and born in Bethlehem (Mica 5:2).

  25. 40 days later, Joseph and Mary take Jesus to the temple to present Him to the Lord and offer up two turtle doves (Luke 2).

  26. Jesus at the temple at age 12

  27. Jesus is baptized by John the Baptist

  28. Jesus finds men to follow Him.

  29. Jesus did many wonderful things that showed His love and compassion for the people.

  30. Jesus took many opportunities to teach the people including those Jews who opposed Him.

  31. One lesson Jesus taught is that we all must become like little children.

  32. Another significant event in the life of Christ was transfiguration.

  33. The triumphal entry into Jerusalem

  34. The last Passover meal before Jesus’ death.

  35. Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane.

  36. Jesus is crucified between two thieves.

  37. Jesus is raised from the dead on the 3rd day

  38. Jesus ascends to heaven

  39. ONE SOLITARY LIFE He was born in an obscure village The child of a peasant woman He grew up in another obscure village Where he worked in a carpenter shop Until he was thirty 

  40. He never wrote a book He never held an office He never went to college He never visited a big city He never travelled more than two hundred miles From the place where he was born He did none of the things Usually associated with greatness He had no credentials but himself 

  41. He was only thirty three His friends ran away One of them denied him He was turned over to his enemies And went through the mockery of a trial He was nailed to a cross between two thieves While dying, his executioners gambled for his clothing The only property he had on earth 

  42. When he was dead He was laid in a borrowed grave Through the pity of a friend 

  43. Nineteen centuries have come and gone And today Jesus is the central figure of the human race And the leader of mankind's progress All the armies that have ever marched All the navies that have ever sailed All the parliaments that have ever sat All the kings that ever reigned put together Have not affected the life of mankind on earth As powerfully as that one solitary life  Written by Dr James Allan in 1926.
